A
CPA -- a Certified Public Accountant -- is the professional
with the widest experience who can provide the greatest array
of effective services to individuals and business owners.
A CPA must undergo rigorous study, pass a strenuous and comprehensive
examination, and be licensed by the State. Continuing professional
education is very important to CPAs who constantly update
their knowledge and skills to make the latest financial and
accounting information available to their clients.
